I understand the law, however, Irving is still a part of Dallas county which is a far left county that doesn’t think the law applies to themTex1961 wrote: Fri Sep 09, 2022 4:43 pm Under chapter 30.06 section E

I carried and never saw a sign and I was also looking. We valet parked and went through the front door of the copper spaceshipchasfm11 wrote: Sat Sep 10, 2022 5:23 am I was at the fund raiser. If there were signs, I completely missed them and I was looking. We parked in the parking garage and walked across the short area between there and the building.
Maybe someone was standing in front of the signs. There were a lot of people milling around

Where were you setting? We were at table 14 to the far left of the stage
I did not see ANY officers. My biggest concern was that they would try and post like the gun shows have in the past. That's why I no longer go to gun shows.chasfm11 wrote: Mon Sep 12, 2022 6:30 amWe were at table 98, near the main door used for entrance and exit.RPBrown wrote: Sat Sep 10, 2022 9:40 amI carried and never saw a sign and I was also looking.

As an aside, I knew someone who worked for the city of Irving. He and I argued whether or not Irving could put up signs on the Convention Center. He told me that lawyers had confirmed that Irving could and I asked "based on what?" After the Dallas Arboretum changed (they were initially posted and then the signs were taken down), I thought that Irving removed their signs, too.
I worry about events like this one because the "opposition" is militant to the point of being fanatical. I didn't see much in the way of uniformed officers. That also makes me nervous.
